Thursday's Major League Soccer SuperDraft on Thursday, Jonathan Mendoza and a
few other MLS prospects spent Monday "kicking it around" with Salty the Sea
Lion and friends at the Miami Seaquarium's iconic Golden Dome.

order to showcase their skills in front of MLS coaches, took the time to
interact with the animals at the Seaquarium for this heart-warming photo-op.
